Cellulitis

Last Saturday woke up feeling fine but within an hour had the horrible shakes and the odd feeling which i recognise has a high temperature trying frantically to fine my themonitor which i was told to always keep handy but after a frantic search could not find, phoning nhs help line have to say not much help, and feeling more and more poorly only having my youngest son here tried to phone my team at addenbrookes then i remembered the purple card with my ward number so phoned them and they said phone an ambulance which i did and 20 mins later two men came to my rescue got me in ambulance and temp was 39.7 got to hospital turns out it was cellulitis which i had not even heard of, so the iv was put in and 63 hours of antibiotics was in, home Tuesday and today still feeling weak have a check up on Tuesday what an ordeal just goes to show never let your guard down, and thank goodness i phoned for that ambulance and not make a cup of tea has told by the person on the helpline!

Its clear!!!

MRI

2009-11-26T09:16:28Z

Yesterday i went for my MRI Jamie came with me so glad he did i would not of wanted to of gone on my own, it was strange walking down the corridor i remember it so clearly how scared i was nine months ago

The lovely nurse lady remembered me and how she cried with me in February, she said how well i looked so thats always nice to hear!!, got changed into the sexy hospital gown then had a cannula put into the back of my hand, so brave lol. i did have a few tears

so the MRI was fine took about 40 Min's, trying to see if i can see concern in the ladies faces or hear it their voices but i have no idea what the results will be, so now the wait begins,have no idea how long i will have to wait it was a week last time, Of course i get the what if''s What if its come back can i do it all again and the honest truth is no but i know i will have too, On the flip side it could come back clear what an amazing Christmas present for me and my family!! So all i have to do is not let the doubts in keep busy, what will be will be xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

nervous

2009-11-24T11:04:39Z

MRI tomorrow 25/11/09 and I'm nervous i feel fine but that don't mean nothing, i pray it don't show anything not sure if i can cope going through it again. i hope i don't have to wait too long for results and i hope my legs carry me into that horrible little room to get the results, think its going to be a week of not much sleep and the dark little demons trying to sneak in and take over the positive thoughts.
